希伯来书 11

信就是所望之事的实底，是未见之事的确据。

xìn jiù shì suǒ wàng zhī shì de shí dǐ ， shì wèi jiàn zhī shì dí què jù 。

Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.

古人在这信上得了美好的证据。

gǔ rén zài zhè xìn shàng dé le měi hǎo de zhèng jù 。

For by this, the elders obtained approval.

我们因着信，就知道诸世界是借 神的话造成的；这样，所看见的，并不是从显然之物造出来的。

wǒ men yīn zhe xìn ， jiù zhī dào zhū shì jiè shì jiè shén de huà zào chéng de ； zhè yàng ， suǒ kàn jiàn de ， bìng bú shì cóng xiǎn rán zhī wù zào chū lái de 。

By faith we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.

亚伯因着信，献祭与 神，比该隐所献的更美，因此便得了称义的见证，就是 神指他礼物作的见证。他虽然死了，却因这信，仍旧说话。

yà bó yīn zhe xìn ， xiàn jì yǔ shén ， bǐ gāi yǐn suǒ xiàn de gèng měi ， yīn cǐ biàn dé le chēng yì de jiàn zhèng ， jiù shì shén zhǐ tā lǐ wù zuò de jiàn zhèng 。 tā suī rán sǐ le ， què yīn zhè xìn ， réng jiù shuō huà 。

By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks.

以诺因着信，被接去，不至于见死，人也找不着他，因为 神已经把他接去了；只是他被接去以先，已经得了 神喜悦他的明证。

yǐ nuò yīn zhe xìn ， bèi jiē qù ， bú zhì yú jiàn sǐ ， rén yě zhǎo bù zhe tā ， yīn wèi shén yǐ jīng bǎ tā jiē qù le ； zhǐ shì tā bèi jiē qù yǐ xiān ， yǐ jīng dé le shén xǐ yuè tā de míng zhèng 。

By faith Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn’t see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God.

人非有信，就不能得 神的喜悦；因为到 神面前来的人必须信有 神，且信他赏赐那寻求他的人。

rén fēi yǒu xìn ， jiù bù néng dé shén de xǐ yuè ； yīn wèi dào shén miàn qián lái de rén bì xū xìn yǒu shén ， qiě xìn tā shǎng cì nà xún qiú tā de rén 。

Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

挪亚因着信，既蒙 神指示他未见的事，动了敬畏的心，预备了一只方舟，使他全家得救。因此就定了那世代的罪，自己也承受了那从信而来的义。

nuó yà yīn zhe xìn ， jì méng shén zhǐ shì tā wèi jiàn de shì ， dòng le jìng wèi de xīn ， yù bèi le yì zhī fāng zhōu ， shǐ tā quán jiā dé jiù 。 yīn cǐ jiù dìng le nà shì dài de zuì ， zì jǐ yě chéng shòu le nà cóng xìn ér lái de yì 。

By faith Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

亚伯拉罕因着信，蒙召的时候就遵命出去，往将来要得为业的地方去；出去的时候，还不知往哪里去。

yà bó lā hǎn yīn zhe xìn ， méng zhào de shí hòu jiù zūn mìng chū qù ， wǎng jiāng lái yào dé wèi yè de dì fāng qù ； chū qù de shí hòu ， hái bù zhī wǎng nǎ lǐ qù 。

By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went.

他因着信，就在所应许之地作客，好像在异地居住帐棚，与那同蒙一个应许的以撒、雅各一样。

tā yīn zhe xìn ， jiù zài suǒ yīng xǔ zhī dì zuò kè ， hǎo xiàng zài yì dì jū zhù zhàng péng ， yǔ nà tóng méng yí gè yīng xǔ de yǐ sā 、 yǎ gè yí yàng 。

By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise.

因为他等候那座有根基的城，就是 神所经营所建造的。

yīn wèi tā děng hòu nà zuò yǒu gēn jī de chéng ， jiù shì shén suǒ jīng yíng suǒ jiàn zào de 。

For he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

因着信，连撒拉自己，虽然过了生育的岁数，还能怀孕，因她以为那应许她的是可信的。

yīn zhe xìn ， lián sā lā zì jǐ ， suī rán guò le shēng yù de suì shù ， hái néng huái yùn ， yīn tā yǐ wéi nà yīng xǔ tā de shì kě xìn de 。

By faith even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.

所以从一个仿佛已死的人就生出子孙，如同天上的星那样众多，海边的沙那样无数。

suǒ yǐ cóng yí gè fǎng fú yǐ sǐ de rén jiù shēng chū zǐ sūn ， rú tóng tiān shàng de xīng nà yàng zhòng duō ， hǎi biān de shā nà yàng wú shù 。

Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.

这些人都是存着信心死的，并没有得着所应许的；却从远处望见，且欢喜迎接，又承认自己在世上是客旅，是寄居的。

zhè xiē rén dōu shì cún zhe xìn xīn sǐ de ， bìng méi yǒu dé zhe suǒ yīng xǔ de ； què cóng yuǎn chù wàng jiàn ， qiě huān xǐ yíng jiē ， yòu chéng rèn zì jǐ zài shì shàng shì kè lǚ ， shì jì jū de 。

These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

说这样话的人是表明自己要找一个家乡。

shuō zhè yàng huà de rén shì biǎo míng zì jǐ yào zhǎo yí gè jiā xiāng 。

For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.

他们若想念所离开的家乡，还有可以回去的机会。

tā men ruò xiǎng niàn suǒ lí kāi de jiā xiāng ， hái yǒu kě yǐ huí qù de jī huì 。

If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.

他们却羡慕一个更美的家乡，就是在天上的。所以 神被称为他们的 神，并不以为耻，因为他已经给他们预备了一座城。

tā men què xiàn mù yí gè gèng měi de jiā xiāng ， jiù shì zài tiān shàng de 。 suǒ yǐ shén bèi chēng wéi tā men de shén ， bìng bù yǐ wéi chǐ ， yīn wèi tā yǐ jīng gěi tā men yù bèi le yí zuò chéng 。

But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

亚伯拉罕因着信，被试验的时候，就把以撒献上；这便是那欢喜领受应许的，将自己独生的儿子献上。

yà bó lā hǎn yīn zhe xìn ， bèi shì yàn de shí hòu ， jiù bǎ yǐ sā xiàn shàng ； zhè biàn shì nà huān xǐ lǐng shòu yīng xǔ de ， jiāng zì jǐ dú shēng de ér zi xiàn shàng 。

By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his only born son,

论到这儿子，曾有话说：「从以撒生的才要称为你的后裔。」

lùn dào zhè ér zi ， céng yǒu huà shuō ：「 cóng yǐ sā shēng de cái yào chēng wéi nǐ de hòu yì 。」

to whom it was said, “Your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac,”

他以为 神还能叫人从死里复活；他也仿佛从死中得回他的儿子来。

tā yǐ wéi shén hái néng jiào rén cóng sǐ lǐ fù huó ； tā yě fǎng fú cóng sǐ zhōng dé huí tā de ér zi lái 。

concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.

By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.

By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.

By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,

他宁可和 神的百姓同受苦害，也不愿暂时享受罪中之乐。

tā níng kě hé shén de bǎi xìng tóng shòu kǔ hài ， yě bú yuàn zàn shí xiǎng shòu zuì zhōng zhī lè 。

choosing rather to share ill treatment with God’s people than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,

他看为基督受的凌辱比埃及的财物更宝贵，因他想望所要得的赏赐。

tā kàn wèi jī dū shòu de líng rǔ bǐ āi jí de cái wù gèng bǎo guì ， yīn tā xiǎng wàng suǒ yào dé de shǎng cì 。

considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.

他因着信，就离开埃及，不怕王怒；因为他恒心忍耐，如同看见那不能看见的主。

tā yīn zhe xìn ， jiù lí kāi āi jí ， bú pà wáng nù ； yīn wèi tā héng xīn rěn nài ， rú tóng kàn jiàn nà bù néng kàn jiàn de zhǔ 。

wǒ yòu hé bì zài shuō ne ？ ruò yào yī yī xì shuō ， jī diàn 、 bā lā 、 cān sūn 、 yē fú tā 、 dà wèi 、 sā mǔ ěr ， hé zhòng xiān zhī de shì ， shí hòu jiù bú gòu le 。
